MOUNT SINA HOTEL
Deira
Mount Sina Hotel is a simple, budget-oriented stay in Deira, with rooms, Wi‑Fi, breakfast, a restaurant and lounge. Its clearest draw is access to the surrounding market, souks and Baniyas Square metro area; reviews describe it as a place to sleep between shopping and meals rather than a polished hotel.

The Good Stuff
Metro Access
Baniyas Square and the Green Metro Line are close enough for convenient city travel.
Budget Rates
Some guests found the hotel economical, with one reporting a room for two adults within 130 DHS.
Working AC
One repeat budget traveller reported that the air conditioning worked well in every room they used.
Free Wi‑Fi
Wi‑Fi is included, and one guest said it was working, though other reviews found the speed or reliability weak.
Nearby Food
The hotel sits near restaurants and shops, so meals and everyday purchases are easy to find on foot.
Tips for a Better Visit
Confirm Supplies. Ask at check-in for towels, tissues and water; guests report receiving only one small bottle or waiting for towels.
Check Fees. Confirm all booking and tourism charges before paying; one guest reported a 20-dirham online booking fee at the desk.
Use Metro. Avoid relying on parking or expensive rides: the hotel has no parking, while the Green Line and Baniyas Square are walkable.
Pack Essentials. Bring a hair dryer or other basics you need, since a booked amenity was reportedly missing from the room.
Expect Noise. If you are a light sleeper, ask about a quieter room; corridor conversations and late-night work disturbed guests.
Keep It Short. Treat it as basic overnight accommodation rather than a full hotel stay; one guest found it workable for short-term budget stays.

The Bottom Line
Mount Sina Hotel is a basic, budget stay in Deira, mainly useful for travellers who want to be near markets, souks, restaurants and the Green Metro Line. Guests describe shops and several restaurants within a 5–10 minute walk, with Baniyas Square metro station and Dubai Creek also close by. It is more of a practical base for sleeping between shopping and meals than a destination hotel.
The property advertises Wi‑Fi, breakfast, a restaurant and lounge. Reviews specifically mention Matka Momo at the restaurant, while opinions on breakfast range from an excellent buffet to limited, lukewarm food. Free Wi‑Fi and working AC are reported, but Wi‑Fi reliability varies.
The main caution is inconsistency. Numerous guests report dirty rooms, unpleasant smells, cockroaches or bedbugs, small shower areas, dim lighting and missing towels, tissues or drinking water. Service complaints include rude reception interactions, slow responses and unexpected charges.
One booking was reportedly moved to another hotel because no room was available. There is no hotel parking, and the surrounding market can be noisy and difficult for cars. Confirm the total price and room readiness at check-in, ask for essentials immediately, and consider the Metro instead of driving.
The low rate can work for a short layover, but expectations should stay firmly basic.
